Wrong configuration of Goclipse in Eclipse

Question

Everytime, when I try to run my Hello-world-program, I get an error message from Eclipse saying "Resource doesnt have a corresponding Go package." There is already a post about the same error message, but the provided solutions didn't help me.

The installation set the GOROOT automatically to "C:\Go\src" For my workspace I created a directory "D:\eclipseGo\workspace", and assigned it to my GOPATH variable.

Following picture shows my setup from the project explorer

As you can see, the GOPATH there points to the src-folder.

In the preferences (under "Go"), the GOROOT was set automatically. Unter Go-Tools I picked the path of the gocode.exe with the "Browse..."-button, and selected the gocode.exe, which was at "D:\eclipseGo\workspace\bin\gocode.exe". Below, the gofmt was set automatically.

That's all what I configured. Does anyone know, where the problem is?

Your project setup seems to indicate MyProject is not contained inside D:\eclipseGo\workspace, so you either need to move your project to a folder inside D:\eclipseGo\workspace\src, or alternatively enable the option "Also add project location to GOPATH, if it's not contained there already." in the project's GOPATH settings (note that this can be configurate globally or per-project).

The Project Explorer display above is misleading because the folder icons seem to indicate MyProject/src is a "source folder" and the files it contains are part of the GOPATH, when they are in fact not. I'm making a note to have this fixed in the next release, as well as the refresh bug.
